"The Annoying Flemish Giant Although the statue looks like a couple of guys teasing Lange Wapper about his unfortunate nickname, it's actually the giant teasing a couple of drunks! Lange Wapper, who stands in front of Het Steen castle on the Antwerp river, is a part of local folklore. He was also known to use tricks to approach women in order to steal their breast milk. Really!!"
